28、11 【正确答案】 TEMPLATES 12 【正确答案】 FREE EBOOK 二、 PART TWO 13 【听力原文】 Speaker 1 I love selling- I think its the essence of business. Two competitors can have products of equal quality but the one with the better sales force will win out every time, But its a complex operation, negotiating successfully, esp

29、ecially since youre often having to pitch without having as much information at your fingertips as youd like about the clients business. And sometimes you need to set aside fixed ideas about price and maybe meet demands to add in some extras, ways to secure the deal that might seem to damage your ma

30、rgin. Of course, you can get it wrong sometimes - once I approached a client very demandingly, pushing him to give me responses without accommodating his very different attitude to negotiating, and it just alienated him. Speaker 2 Im learning all the time about how to improve techniques, but theres

31、only so much you can control on a technical basis. I mean, the price and quality youre offering are probably a given, and your clients going to be making their own calculations about how they compare with the competition. So a lot of it comes down to how you put yourself over, and if thats confident

32、 and presuming a good outcome to your discussions, I think youve got a winning approach. But you still have to stay alert to the possibility of making mistakes. I was once so involved in all He toing and froing you get in dosing a deal, you know, all the phone calls, that I forgot to keep or ask for

33、 proper notes, and they were able to really sting me, Speaker 3 You can read all the books you want, but they wont tell you how to deal with any particular client. Some people spend so much time studying their competitors that they almost seem to know more about them than their own products, and its

34、 a waste of time, cos you have to se/your plus points, not their minuses - thats something you dont refer to. For all you know, your clients already got a good relationship with your strongest rival. Never assume anything. I really misread a client once. I was talking away, listing all Our special f

35、eatures in far too much detail, and completely missed the point that the client just wasnt in a hurry He wanted to take it nice and slow, and was dropping hints about good dinners which passed me by at the time, cos most customers arent so interested in that. Speaker 4 Despite what anyone says, youl

36、l never really know how your client runs their business, only what they tell you, and they may tell you all sorts of things to try and bring down the price, upgrade the offer, and so on, within your margins. You cant know what discussions they have already been in with your competition either So you

37、 need to work on building up an understanding between you, to give you some kind of a basis to work from. Which is, of course, easier said than done. The larger the deal, the more anxious you can become, and once I got overwhelmed by that, so much so that the client clearly thought that not only was

38、 I an idiot, but that my firm must be pretty useless too. Not my most successful day! Speaker 5 Selling is a science, not an art-form. The easy bit is cost and calculation, which anyone can do, but your offerings dont mean anything in themselves, you have to see them in context, and that means how t

39、he client sees them. So if you dont do your homework on the clients set-up, youre talking to the wind - information is power Mind you, Ive taken that logic a step too far in the past. Im still embarrassed when I remember the time I was so keen to make the client understand all the particular ways in

40、 which my offer suited him so very perfectly that I didnt stop to consider the fact that he was basically saying yes already I actually prolonged the process so much that I ended up in danger of blowing the whole thing! 13 【正确答案】 E 14 【正确答案】 C 15 【正确答案】 B 16 【正确答案】 F 17 【正确答案】 H 18 【正确答案】 H 19 【正确答案

41、】 A 20 【正确答案】 G 21 【正确答案】 B 22 【正确答案】 C 三、 PART THREE 22 【听力原文】 Man: Good afternoon. It is time for Face to Face. This week, Sonia Kay talks to Jim OBrien. Woman: Jim OBrien heads the UK division of American PC company Hacker. Mr OBrien, thank you very much for sparing us a few minutes of your busy

42、schedule. Man: Hello. Its a pleasure. And please call me Jim. Woman: Well, Jim, can we start by going through a typical day for you? Man: I usually get up at around 5am. I drive in from my house to the office in London. I get very frustrated sitting in traffic jams so I leave early to beat the rush.

43、 I enjoy driving in, its nice to get away on my own. Woman: Thats certainly an early start! Man: Yes, well, at 6.30am, I get into the office. I use the time to get through my post and do the things that are difficult to do during the normal working day because of people wanting to see me. Between th

44、e hours of 8 and 9 1 take care of any European business which needs doing. Woman: What a schedule! Do you find it exhausting? Man: Exhausting, no. But, unfortunately most of my time is spent in meetings now, which doesnt really suit my type of personality. I much prefer the hands-on approach - I wou

45、ld rather be out chatting to people than sitting in the boardroom preparing policies and strategies - but that is a luxury I cant afford. Woman: Could you tell us how you started with Hacker? Man: I got into Hacker almost by accident. I was chief executive of a meat trading firm called FMC Harris, w

46、hich was subject to a hostile take-over. At 9am one morning my boss was fired, and by 9.10am I was ont too. I spent eight weeks with no job, a wife and children to support, and a house to pay for. Then I was approached by Hacker to set up a UK branch for them. I was reluctant at first, but after a t

47、rip to Hackers headquarters in the US to discuss it, I was chasing them! Woman: Its a big company. Who do you actually work with on a daily basis? Man: The rest of the management team arrives at around 9am. I work closely with a team of six, including my PA, Alice Lang. She is an integral part of th

48、e management system. I was lucky to find her, as its almost impossible to find the right person for the job. The ideal employee is someone who is willing to work hard and someone who can adapt to the way we work. Woman: Uh-huh. Right, so lets get you up to lunch-time. After your early start, you mus

49、t be ready for lunch quite early, too. Man: Yes, though the actual time varies from day to day. I try to avoid business lunches because I still have the afternoon ahead to contend with. I dont enjoy lengthy meals. So I usually just have a sandwich in the office with Alice. Woman: And are there any changes planned for the future? Man: People ask me if I get frustrated or bored, but the job changes constantly. This year we are moving away from
